Scholarships and Grants
Academic Scholarships
We have two scholarships to provide support to those students who are outstanding in their field:
- School Leaver Scholarships
- Bachelor of Visual Art (Honours) Scholarships
School Leaver Scholarships
Our School Leaver Scholarships provide $5,000 in support to undertake the first year of full-time study of the Bachelor of Visual Art (BVA). Scholarships of up to $5000 will be awarded to successful applicants as a contribution to study-related expenses. If you’ve successfully completed senior secondary school within the last three years, this scholarship is open for you.
Applications for Semester 2 2023 close 16 June.
Bachelor of Visual Art (Honours) Scholarship
Our BVA (Hons) Scholarship provides $7,500 towards study-related expenses in our Honours program. Honours at ACSA is a year-long period of research and art making, building on the research undertaken in the final year of the Bachelor of Visual Art. Honours students receive a private art studio on campus, work closely with a chosen supervisor and attend a weekly Honours Research Methods class with their cohort.
Applications for 2023 are now closed. Applications for 2024 will open in late 2023.
‘I can now afford the materials I need to sustain my painting practice and am able to expand the resources that help fuel my ideas and practice. The scholarship has allowed me a greater sense of financial stability in balancing full time study and living out of home independently for the first time.’
